On The Market

April 4, 1985

OTTAWA — The federal government will have a garage sale of sorts. Offered to the public: 80 properties, including a prison, office towers and vacant land, valued at about $50 million. Public Works Minister Roch LaSalle says this is only the first step by the Conservative government to get rid of property that is not being used. Another $100 million worth is being considered for sale, he said.
